Sec. 19. Any part of the city's portion of the total cost of the improvement which is necessary for the city to pay prior to the collection of benefit assessments under this chapter and prior to the issue and sale of bonds under this chapter, shall be paid as follows: the board shall, from time to time, certify the items of expense to the controller or clerk-treasurer, directing him to pay those amounts, and the controller or clerk-treasurer shall draw his warrant or warrants, and the warrant or warrants shall be paid out of the general fund of the city without appropriation being made by the common council; or, in case there is no money in the general fund of the city not otherwise appropriated, the city controller or clerk-treasurer shall recommend to the common council the temporary transfer from other funds of the city a sufficient amount to meet the items of expense, or the making of a temporary loan for this purpose, and the common council shall at once make the transfer of funds, or authorize the temporary loan in the same manner that other temporary loans are made by the city. The fund or funds of the city from which the payments are made shall be fully reimbursed and repaid by the board out of the special fund created by the sale of bonds and from benefit assessments or out of funds coming to the city from equitable settlements between the parties. The board may cause the amount for the temporary advancements on work to be provided for in the budget and tax levy of the city for the year when the funds are anticipated to be needed.
